The FIH World Cup did not go as expected for the Indian women's hockey team but striker Navneet Kaur on July 14 said the side will look to better its performance at the Commonwealth Games in Birmingham. India finished ninth in the World Cup.
The team began the campaign with a 1-1 draw against England. In its next match, it was held to a 1-1 draw by China. India's final group stage match ended in a 3-4 defeat to New Zealand.
India had a chance to go to the quarterfinals despite finishing third in the group stage. However, they missed out on the opportunity to finish in the top 8 after a 0-1 loss to Spain.
